"I cant breathe through my nose," Blaine said falling back in his bed with a groan.

Kurt had to admit seeing his boyfriend sick was sort of adorable. When Blaine had text him earlier saying he was sick, he didnt imagine he would find his boyfriend in a blanket cocoon with a red rosy nose and pale complexion. He smiled and put a hand on Blaines forehead, "You are burning up."

Blaine pulled his blanket over his head, "I feel awful," but it sounded sort of funny because of his blocked nasal passages.

"You are lucky you have the perfect boyfriend then," Kurt said as he pushed Blaine over to sit on the bed beside him. He took out a couple of ibuprofen and handed them to Blaine.

"Youll get sick too," Blaine said as he peeked from underneath the blankets. He took the medicine and took a small drink of water.

"Ill risk it all for you," Kurt laughed. "Now I am going to go to the store and get a few things. How about you try and sleep a little."

Blaine settled down in his bed, "Im glad I dont have a show tonight."

"You wont be going on any stage until I give you the okay," Kurt pressed a kiss to Blaines head, "I will be back as soon as I can."

"Okay," Blaine said trying to comfortable.

Kurt walked out into the living room and Kyle just shook his head at him. "I cant believe you can handle him when he is sick."

"What do you mean?" Kurt asked him.

"He is all whiney and nothing makes him better," Kyle said to him.

Kurt lifted an eyebrow, "Trust me, youve never had Kurt Hummel taking care of him. I think I got this. Im going to the store really quick. If he needs anything will you be here?"

"Im planning on getting out here as soon as possible," Kyle said, "Maddie and Derby is meeting me at your place. We cant risk catching whatever he did. Musicians have very sensitive bodies."

Kurt couldnt help but laugh at Kyles antics, "Okay. I have my extra key so you can lock the door when you leave." Of course, Rachel herself refused to come over when she heard Blaine was sick.

"Remember to Lysol this whole place after he is better," Kyle said wagging a finger at Kurt.

Kurt wrapped his scarf around his neck as he walked out the door and shook his head. He did notice Blaine was a bit needier, but Kurt had to live with his dad while he healed up, so he could do this.

After a trip to two different stores, Kurt walked back to the apartment and opened the door dragging in his bags. He took a bag and pulled back Blaines curtain, "Hey baby, how are you feeling?"

"Awful," Blaine said in his sad pathetic voice. "Did the guys leave?"

"Yeah, apparently you are too diseased for them," Kurt said taking out some medicine from the bag. "Okay, you need some of this." He took the cold medicine and poured the required amount in the tiny cup, "Drink this?"

"Is it the drowsy kind?" Blaine asked him.

Kurt nodded, "Yes, it works the best."

Blaine shook his head, "No, that stuff makes me really sleepy and loopy."

"Blaine drink it," Kurt said pushing the tiny cup towards Blaine, "It will help you feel better, besides the sleep is good for you."

Giving Kurt a look, Blaine took the tiny cup and drank down the medicine in one swallow. He made a face, "Doesnt taste good."

Kurt rolled his eyes, "Okay." He handed Blaine some juice he bought, "Drink this and then get some rest. I will make you something to eat while you sleep."

"Thank you," Blaine said to Kurt, "I would give you a kiss if I didnt think I would die from lack of oxygen."

"Sure, well go with that," Kurt said as he stood up and tucked Blaine back in, "Ill be back in a bit to check on you." Blaine was already being affected by the drowsy medicine and sleepily nodded at Kurt before closing his eyes.

Kurt walked back out into the kitchen and started to go through the groceries he bought. He bought his supplies for his quick chicken soup. He started to cut up his vegetables to get them prepped. He started boiling the chicken broth and adding the vegetables to cook them.

Checking on Blaine every few times, Kurt made sure he was still sleeping soundly. He had to smile at the light snoring coming from Blaine. It was sort of adorable.

Taking a bowl down, Kurt set it on a tray and filled the bowl with a few noodles and then added some of the broth and vegetables to the bowl. He added some crackers on the tray and more juice.

Kurt picked up the tray and moved the curtain to head into Blaines room, "Hey sleepy head." He set the tray down on Blaines desk and walked over to wake Blaine up. "Blaine," Kurt said running his hand on Blaines hairline.

Blaine made a small moaning noise and opened one of his eyes, "Whats going on?"

"I thought you could use some food," Kurt smiled at Blaine.

"Hmmm," Blaine nodded as he leaned into Kurts touch.

Kurt patted Blaines side, "Okay sleepy head, time to sit up."

Slowly, Blaine sat up with Kurts help and he had a tray of warm soup in front of him. "If I could smell I know it would be good."

"Alright, eat up," Kurt said, "Because I may love you, but I am not feeding you."

Blaine picked up the spoon and stirred the soup, "Dont worry well save that for when Im really sick and cant even sit up."

"Do you really get sick that much?" Kurt asked him.

"I have a horrible immune system," Blaine shrugged and took a sip of the soup, "Rachel would always keep far away and say I had to stay in my room until I was feeling better."

"You remember when she had to have that surgery," Kurt said watching as Blaine ate his meal.

"Yeah, I thank Finn every day for that trip he sent her on," Blaine said and used the napkin to wipe his face.

Kurt picked up one of the pillows from the floor and held it in his arms, "So anything new with you?"

"Oh, I forgot to mention, this other band is going on tour this summer and they invited Stereo Outcast to come along," Blaine explained, "Nothing is set in stone yet, but I think it would be fun."

"Yeah," Kurt nodded his head, "You know I think Stereo Outcast is getting a bit bigger than anyone expected."

"You and me both," Blaine said as he leaned back to look at Kurt, "In a bad way or good way?"

Kurt tilted his head to the side, "What?"

Blaine reached down and took Kurts hand in his own. He realized his own hand was a bit clammy and sent Kurt an apologetic look, "I just want you to know that I would still choose you over the band any day."

Patting Blaines hand, Kurt smiled at him, "I think you need to go back to sleep."

"I mean it Kurt," Blaine said to him. "I love you."

"And I love you," Kurt picked up the tray from Blaines lap and watched as Blaine snuggled back in his bed.

To be honest, Kurt knows Blaine always tells him he would choose him over the band, but they were coming to their own. Stereo Outcast was getting more fans every day, with a few offers from record labels. They were small labels, but people were noticing them. Kurt knew they were amazing and soon everyone else would know the same.

Three days later, Blaine was sitting on the couch and his friends walked through the door. "Is it safe?" Derby asked barely opening the door.

Blaine let out a sigh, "Yes." He had his arms wrapped around Kurt holding him.

Derby, Kyle and Maddie walked into the loft, "Did you disinfect?"

Kurt gave Blaine a look, "They were serious about that?" Derby threw his bag at him.

"How did you not get sick?" Maddie asked sitting on the couch beside them.

Giving a shrug, Kurt smiled, "I dont get sick too often."

"But if you ever do, I will be there to take care of you," Blaine said pressing a kiss to Kurts cheek.

"Im just glad you arent acting whinny anymore," Kyle said and then he sneezed.

They all froze and stared at him. "Oh hell no," Derby stood up and picked up his bag.

Kurt let out a groan, "I am not taking care of you."

Kyle looked over at Maddie. "No way," she picked up her bag and started to follow Derby out the door, "You can handle this little cold all on your own."

Kurt unwrapped himself from Blaines arms and stood up looking at Blaine, "Want to stay at my place for a few nights?"

"Technically I wont catch it," Blaine said to Kurt, "I already had it...and I am totally an idiot. Lets go!" Kurt let out a laugh as Blaine sprang up to go pack his bag for the weekend.
